Description
Describe the bug
I am testing a default/stock installation of open.mp from the releases section. Everything goes smoothly on linux, loads the components, then displays the loading of the gamemode. When I load this on a windows host, it goes smoothly up until the end of the loading components. It hangs/freezes after "Loading xx component(s) from xx", never loading anything past that.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Download linux release on linux host
- Load linux binary
- Download windows release on windows host
- Load windows binary
Expected behavior
Since both tests are identical (version, components, gamemodes etc), I would expect both to load exactly the same.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the stock v1.2.0.2670 release on Linux and Windows and compare the startup output around "Loading component(s)". Investigate why the Windows host stops before loading the gamemode; done means the Windows release proceeds past component loading and behaves like the Linux release.
